Today we celebrate the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr…..let’s honor Dr. King’s memory as we begin our work week. The following Dr. King quote can help us reflect on the work we are doing at Kennedy School.
“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character, that is the goal of education.”
Do we hold high expectations for all of our learners?
Is critical thinking reinforced for all of our learners?
Is character education a focus in our classrooms everyday?
Are we serving others in our school community?
As you begin your week, keep the above quote in mind as you reflect on your practice.
Let’s have a great 4-day week!
